  1. How's the Pim Jacobs?
  2. I hear that Hardbop is trying hard to access Albertson's profile in order to mess with 'Bess.'
  3. That's a good one to get. $24.95 including shipping beats Mundo, Amazon Japan....and all the rest. http://cgi.ebay.com/CRY-ME-A-RIVER-John-Hi...1QQcmdZViewItem
  4. Yep. Rather spend $16 on a sandstone coaster
  5. Tuesday it is!!!
  6. Saw that too. For that kind of money, that thing outta do your taxes too.
  7. Sounds like something from the 'Harvest' LP w/the London Symphony Orch on a couple of tracks ('Man Needs a Maid"?)
  8. Well whatever they're using, I know how to bring them to their knees!!! I'll just feed 'em some Burl and listen to that sound recognition device sputter and drop dead. No way they have this in the data bank! ...and don't ask why I have it in the collection.
  9. Yes, why can't they hand him this one to play around with? Who cares if he wasn't the original engineer?
  10. from Direct-Disk Labs in '78. That company still around???
  11. No, wasn't paying attention........was too giddy over having been dressed up in that wicked cool cotton plush velour shirt by my Mom!
  12. I should have added one more: half of a crushed box this week...the other half next week
  13. Hmmm. I guess the thing that's impressive is that it still picks up on it even though the track times on your vinyl burn can be off by 2-5 seconds because you're manually inserting all the track numbers while recording. Still hard to believe that, with all the classical, rock, jazz LPs out there, there aren't a half dozen others that have similar track configurations/timing. Thanks.
  14. A couple of minutes ago I finished burning the Neil Young 'Everybody Knows This is Nowhere' vinyl to CD-RW on my Philips component burner. When I took the finalized disc and went to transfer it to my Real Player library on the pc, the Real Player prompt that popped up recognized the LP and all the titles. I understand how this would happen with CDs and encoding.......but how does Real Player recognize the contents of a vinyl burn?
  15. Been slowly working my way through a book I'd read (well, sort of ) in college -- The Autobiography of Yukichi Fukuzawa about an educator who was around (1835-1901) to witness the vast changes that took place during Japan's transformation from isolated feudal state. Interesting guy who first visited the U.S. in 1860 as a crew member on what was the first ever trans-Pacific voyage to the U.S. of a Japanese warship (purchased from the Dutch). The funny thing is, the ship was basically escorting another ship that was carrying Japan's first envoy to visit Washington......but the envoy was being ferried over on the U.S. warship! Interesting observations about his later travels in Europe and subsequent return to Japan where the anti-foreigner pot was about boiling over (1863) with explusion decrees being issued in Kyoto, and all sorts of attacks upon Dutch, English & US vessels...
  16. couldn't figure out how to delete that other one. Duh!
  17. Two packages were dispatched from the e-Toys warehouse located 250 miles south near the VA/NC border on 12/8 and were headed up to the DHL transit facility in Allentown, PA for sorting. Based on all the good stuff I've read lately about DHL, I'm wondering if they'll get here?
  18. Maple. My wife likes that Mrs. Butterworth sugar water. That's about it in terms of domestic kitchen/cuisine 'quarrelling.'
  19. He drove a super hard bargain in the trades dept. and had a habit of suddenly moving the goal posts and asking for just one more thing as you were preparing to write the check, so to speak. I think Shrugs once got into it with him over that.
  20. Me too.......that intro with the helicopter hovering above the entrance when the ant comes out and drops the ribcage, which then rolls down the mound & comes to rest up against the cops gunbelt (or something like that...been awhile) just gave me the heebee jeebees as a kid.
  21. He posted today ya know....
